It’s so interesting how almost everything comes back in fashion. A few years ago, I never thought I would wear tights/hose again, but – to me, at least – the girls in the black tights look so much fresher than the bare-legged girl.

yes, i hope more women in america re-discover the joy of wearing a skirt, especially one that is fitted but has pleats or gores about the knees–makes for a sweet sensual feeling whilst walking, and pretty

as for hose–so many nice things available.except for the really cold climates, tights not really necessary. there are over the knee, thigh high etc, and quality stockings like wolford–patterned stockings, textures, colors. sheer nude hose kind of boring i think

of course, american women are fatter than european women, but no reason not to enjoy dressing up. maybe all the more reason

And possibly the best bit is that this kind of platforms/heels are normally extremely wearable, a pleasure to walk in and look at. The same goes for the tights-mini combo, a no-brainer on a dry autumn day. But why is there only one bag for viewers to feast our eyes on? :D

About the tights look: the girl at the front, if it wasn’t for the bag, she could be any girl working in a Parisian office, because in Paris the whole black tights, black skirt, black shoes can be rather pedestrian. Although this is a good representative picture, I feel the impact of this trend is only really felt if one sees the whole look.

I find it funny that tights and hose are now considered trendy. Ive been wearing them my whole life, my mother wouldn’t have it any other way. But just a year ago my colleagues were teasing me about it while they showed up with (in my opinion, underdressed) bare legs. Funny.

I love this shot! Great legs and shoes! I agree with Concupiscence platforms are definitely good for all-day wear. My sister has always maintained that the higher the heel, the more comfortable and I am starting to agree.

I will say this again and again, black is so totally boring. Try Harder. It makes me sad to think that someone would wake up and say, “I know, I’ll get up and wear my black skirt today” and be really excited. I have said this only once about my beautiful black velvet Dries skirt with billowy pockets. When I woke up, though, I would say, “I’m going to wear my Dries skirt today!”

CollegeGirl – please don’t wear this look to all of your interviews unless you are going to work at a sexy bank.

great picture !Sorry though to say that these days in Paris (I live there) it’s quite difficult to find good-looking skirts in most shops… Even yesterday, I had difficulties and ended up buying my …th pair of pants ;-((

Fuss,It’s all about the fit of the shoe. There are high-heel shoes, even at the 4″+ height that are so comfortable that you forget you have them on. Conversely, there are flats that absolutely make my feet hurt. I *love* strappy heels, but it takes a lot of shopping effort to find a pair that doesn’t torture my pinky toes. When I find such a shoe, I wear it out until it disintegrates! I suppose my point is that there is really no generalizing about heel height and comfortable fit. It’s all about finding that great-fitting pair.

What a shot! Is it just me who finds this picture extremely intimidating? For some reason this shot stands out from your others to me. All I can see is an exclusive clique hesitant to let anyone in… very Devil Wears Prada.
